Message from Dropbox about completing date of birth by 1st September or lose Family Plan Access
I received the same email & have the same issue. I can't find where to update the DOB from! This truly frustrating for how much we pay for this service. Not to mention that we store important persona...

Hi, Dropbox! I received an invitation to join Dropbox Family but I entered an incorrect birth date. I am of legal age and need to continue working with this Dropbox account. I do not want my account deleted within 48 hours. Please, I need urgent help!

Hey anabranez, thanks for the nudge here.
If you entered your birth date incorrectly, you can simply contact our support team, to let them know and they'll be able to help you resolve this.
- anabranez4 years agoExplorer | Level 3Hi, @hannah! I only have the option to chat with the bot (doesn't solve my problem) and to consult this community. I have not been able to solve the problem with these two options. I wanted to know if there is a way to communicate directly with Dropbox support.

I have the same problem and its almost impossible to get anything back from Dropbox. Apparently at 53 I am not old enough to have a Droppbox account!

I wanted to upgrade my Dropbox account after having it for three years and they wont let me do it as they say I am not old enough. As a man in his 50's and having had the account for three years, not sure why they think this.
Trying to speak to a Support is impossible. You only ever get through to a Chat Bot who doesn't answer questions I ask. They also terminate the Chat very quickly.
I have been trying to resolve this for months and spent hours and every time I "speak" to a Bot, I get difference answers.
I cant see anywhere where my DOB is listed nor do I recall ever being asked it.
My account is now locked and I have to make a presentation on Monday and cant unless it is unlocked and I can get to the file. They have just told me they dont open over the weekend.
I think people should know what poor service they offer once they are signed up.
